A policeman asked a girl what . . . . . . name was. A. she B. hers C. herself D. her

The correct answer is D. her.

The policeman is asking the girl for her name, so the pronoun that should be used is the possessive pronoun “her.” The other options are incorrect because they are not possessive pronouns.

• “She” is a personal pronoun that refers to a female person.
• “Hers” is a possessive pronoun that refers to something that belongs to a female person.
• “Herself” is a reflexive pronoun that refers to the person who is doing the action.

In this case, the policeman is not asking the girl about herself, he is asking her about her name. Therefore, the correct pronoun to use is “her.”
